But here’s the problem. It is extremely rare that the newspapers these days go after genuine charlatans. Every day, I hear rumours of malpractice in charities, or fraud in business, but with dwindling circulations and advertising revenue in freefall, the press simply doesn’t have the funds any more to chase leads.

Woodward and Bernstein seem to have been replaced by a bunch of desk-bound journos who rewrite press releases from global warming lunatics and run a couple of pap pictures of Madonna buying an ice cream.
